HOME
- This is the page you are currently viewing. The bar above will follow
you on each page you visit so you can easily navigate to different sections,
and/or return "home".

GENEALOGY
- This page will guide you to our database on Rootsweb World Connect and
provide you with links to additional areas of research. Also includes
one of the best sources of information of Epsom genealogy "Early
Settlers of Epsom" by John Mark Moses.

CEMETERY
- An extensive amount of information available here, including a searchable
database of the Epsom Cemetery Book; a listing by Cemetery with surnames
listed alphabetically and easy links to gravestone photos of over 2000
individuals in Epsom cemeteries; locations of Epsom Cemeteries via the
New Hampshire Old Graveyard Association website; and soldier's burials.

RECORDS
- One hundred years of census records for Epsom are available from 1790
through 1880 with explanation of the data in them. Most valuable are the
DEATH RECORDS of Jonathan Dolbeer 1819-1874. Available vital statistics
are being added, and in the future will be adding heads of households
from the tax/agricultural census info.

HISTORY
- The history of Epsom can be explored through various articles gleaned
from the Epsom Historical Association archives. These would include information
on schools, churches, historic structures and places. In addition there
are biographies of some Epsom individuals and families, some of which
has been contributed by people who have found the Epsom Early Settlers
website and graciously shared their information.

SOLDIERS
- Included here is information on Epsom soldiers with information from
GAR Post 66, many accompanied by photos and letters. Gravestone photos
are also included, as well as information and list of the Association
Test signers. Planned for the future is information on War of 1812 veterans.

EPSOM
HISTORICAL ASSOCIATION - As Epsom approaches its
275th Anniversary in 2002, this is the place to find out about information
on related events, EHA meetings, and how to contact the historical association.
Also listed will be any new additions to the EHA archives and any ongoing
projects. See the latest EHA Newsletter.

LINKS
- Every website has its favorite links, and we are no exception. Included
is the 1858 & 1892 maps of Epsom, NH and views of the town from the
Microsoft terra server. This is one of my favorite pages, as all my favorite
research places and links to other areas of interest to Epsom research
are in one easy place for me to find. I hope you will also find it helpful.
